Using Chargeback for Butlins
We're within 10 days of an October Break in Butlins, Minehead.

Company Only accepting cheque or bank transfer payment for uk accommodation-is this ok?
Im trying to book a break for my family next year in the uk. Found the perfect accommodation at the right price but the company dealing with the bookings on the owners behalf only accepts cheques or bank transfers as payment and that worries me a bit. I know chargeback and section 75 would be unlikely to cover us if we…

Large Outdoors -cash unsafe?
I was thinking of booking a walking holiday with largeoutdoors.com but they don't appear to be members of any trade association so I haven't had the confidence to book anything.

Money Moral Dilemma: Should I share the cashback I got for booking a holiday with my friends?
This week's MoneySaver who wants advice asks... My friends and I have been planning to go away together, but no one would bite the bullet and book the holiday.
